What's With All This Goddamn Dust In The Wind?

It's like the goddamn Dust Bowl out here. For hours now there's been heavy amounts of dust particles in the air, probably coming in with this low pressure front. Walk around outside for longer than five mintues and your throat starts to get scratchy. Then comes the constant stream of dirt in your eyes. I don't know where the wind picked up all these microscopic shit bits, but it's fucking horrendous.

Noticed that too, my eyes were red within a few minutes driving with the top down on my car. Some rain wouldn't hurt.

I haven't gone out in it yet but I'm looking at a streetlight and I can see the dust swirling around under it.

If this has been going on for hours like OP said then that's a hell of a lot top soil that's been flying around.

I understand you might be slightly retarded and not have noticed the area has received little to no rain this spring. Look at the grass that is currently dying and do the math retard.

We've had about average rain.

It's not dust, it's pollen.

Uhh, pretty sure it's rained a decent amount within the last week by itself.

I didn't think pollen got released so much during the night, but apparently that's when it does it the most. Who would've thought that pollen could get so bad?

It's radiocative fallout from Fukushima. For God's sake, please tell me you haven't breathed any of it in.

Just stop breathing. All will be well because your death will create one more space on the road as you will not be driving.
